What is it?
This toolkit is a suggested method of gauging whether children in the early stages of learning English will be able to access the mathematics in the planned teaching programme for the year group concerned. It is a useful starting point that can help with matching the child's skills and knowledge to their place in the class groupings.
This toolkit is based on the Key Objectives for each strand from the Framework for teaching mathematics from Reception to Year 6 and Framework for teaching mathematics: Years 7, 8 and 9, with a few other objectives added as appropriate.
These materials are designed to be visual and not reliant on language, although oral and written forms of language are used.
The idea is that an adult will demonstrate and model what the child is to do using the resources. The adult will assess whether the child knows some or all of the mathematics by the ease and confidence with which the child approaches or carries out the task from the cues given.
